Maven makes it so easy when I work on projects where I don't have it I feel like slitting my wrists on a fine spring morning like today. Jokes aside it is not too difficult.
Download the latest Hibernate Search Full distribution zip file from Sourceforge. Sanne Grinovero from the Hibernate search team has all the link in one of his blog entries so head over there and read it.
Once downloaded and extracted add only what you need. A minimal at least would be the following dependencies.
- hibernate-search-engine-5.5.4.Final.jar
- hibernate-search-orm-5.5.4.Final.jar
- lucene-core-5.3.1.jar
- tika-core-jar-1.4.jar
- tika-parsers-1.4.jar
- lucene-analyzers-common-5.3.1.jar
This should get you running but you might need some other jars in the archives, just don't add everything in the extracted archive as you might just run into conflicts with existing libraries. So if you are having problems deploying you probably got some jar conflict. Someone reported this problem yesterday. So slow and easy one step at time to avoid frustration here.
Note that these are found under the dist\lib folder of the extracted archives.
